Yes I'm a mumpty.
I've just been to refuel my car (C200 CDi 2004 facelift), removed the fuel cap, put a shot of Millers in then reached for the fuel lead and put a litre of unleaded in before I realised
I then filled to brim with diesel (the tank was already 1/4 of diesel) and drove the 2 miles home.
Looking on the net I can see very conflicting opinions: the AA Fuel Assist people say less than 5 litres on a full tank should be OK provided the car wasn't started before filling with diesel. Other opinion is that the damage is done and I can expect to need new pump, injectors etc.
What's your view guys? Is 1 litre in 60 survivable? Will the Millers help?
Thanks from a very upset newbie.
